they are going to milk this show for all they can get out of it.
Oh dear, but it feels like I'll watch it anyway.
The end of the series was such a shock because period dramas adapted from novels end! They end with the heroine and hero married! Even Austen's heiresses in writing who write series move on to the siblings or friends!
I can see that there was space for adding a contemporary twist to an unfinished work where you had to add material, and I love thie ending created in the adaptation my icon is from even though I know the original author would never have written it. But but Sanditon could do better on the dealing with race and slavery front. Or if you must introduce anachronisms, (and there are so many) lean into it harder.
